guitar):
Blood and water bound to overflow
Blood and water bound to overflow
Well theres no more high water
But the Old Mans just waiting, I know
He was sent up on the levee
Now theyve gone up country
They wont do nothing for you now
And dont go asking me
Theyve gone its all over here
Sometimes Id see her passing
With the evening coming on
Ive seen you on her pathway
Ive seen you at dawn
Look over yonder at that empty shack
You know as well as I do
They aint coming back
Theyre gone its all over here
Blood and water bound to overflow
Blood and water bound to overflow
Well theres no more high water
But the Old Mans just waiting, I know

So many promises
We broke them, every one
Kept people on the levees
Withsherrifs and shotguns
Theyre gone its all over here
Look over yonder at that empty shack
You know as well as I do
They aint coming back
Theyre gone its all over here
Blood and water bound to overflow
Blood and water bound to overflow
Well theres no more high water
No more high water
Well theres no more high water
But the Old Mans just waiting, I know
